SBD Esport Hub
The SBD Esport Hub is a project at Sabadell to boost sport as a driving motor to revitalise both the economy and social cohesion. The goal is to create a network of people, entities, and businesses that favour synergies to boost innovation projects in sports and health through talks, meets, workshops, and reunions.
But for this new hub in Sabadell to help the birth and enrichment of innovative and viable projects, these interactions have to have clear purposes, with relevant agents, with specific service proposals, and focused around technologies and favourable areas of expertise. To properly do so, it is mandatory that the SBD Esport Hub become a committed collective task.
In order to lay the foundations and deploy this project, Sabadell City Hall promoted three technical sessions, which were organised by the UAB Research Park under the Hub B30 umbrella, along with the collaboration of the UAB Institute of Sports Research (IRE UAB) and the UAB Smart Cities CORE.
Three sessions were hosted, and the debate was focused on the map of sport-related assets in the city, the possible functions of a hub, and the main technical and organisational challenges of the initiative.
